CDN Lotto 649 Sets A New Record
The Canadian Lotto 649 set a new record for the Oct 22 draw. The $30 million bonus jackpot is the largest ever.The previous record was $29,140,524 set on Aug 7, 2004. Interesting to note that the previous record was set after the current cap rule was invoked. When the jackpot reaches $25 million, then a larger percentage of the money goes towards lower tier prizes and away from the jackpot. On the Aug 7, 2005 draw a match 4 paid $217. A match 4 normally pays $70 on average. A match 5 paid $6,628

Powerball Lottery Jackpot Grows to New Record of $340 MillionReply
I wonder how much marketing they did to educate people of the new annuity schedule. Most people will believe that when there is a new record annuity jackpot that basically means a new record cash value (Most people at this jackpot level will choose cash). Powerball could tomorrow change the cash to annuity ratio to around 25% which could lead to a new record annuity jackpot of $400 million. Does that really mean its a new record? Not in my book.The record jackpot title should only be given to th

For the second time in a row, the Mega Millions lottery rolled to $150 million and set two new records.It is currently the second largest jackpot in the US. This is a record high for the second largest jackpot. The previous record was $125 million.$150 million is also the largest MM jackpot after 13 rolls. The previous record was $138 million set on July 12, 2002. This is probably related to Texas joining MM.The 13 roll record for The Big Game lottery that MM replaced was $73 million. The Powerb

$625 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot soars on rolloverReply
Is it rare to have 24 consecutive draws without a winner? Given the steep odds and slower growth I'm sure it's going to become more common, but so far it has never happened for PB. The current record for most drawings until somebody won PB is 24. That run started on 5/11/16 and was won on the 24th drawing, when it had grown to $487 million. By comparison the record jackpot was more than 3 times as much when it was won on the 20th drawing, and Mavis Wanczyk won her then record single prize o

Britain's record lottery winners go publicReply
Actually, the record for the longest confirmed sniper kill has been held by a Brit Sniper since 2009. Rob Furlong(born 1976), a former corporal of the Canadian Forces, once held the record for the longest confirmed sniper kill in combat, at 2,430 metres (2,657 yd, 12.08 furlongs, or 1.51 miles).[1] This shot exceeded the previous record of Arron Perry set in 2001 just before Furlong's record by 120 m or 130 yd.
